Forgiveness
The act of granting pardon to someone for a wrong doing. The ability to release the emotional shackles placed on one who you wish to retaliate against. Holding grudges will only deter the many blessings in which hold your mailing address. Why hold onto anger? Is it not heavy? Is it not painful? People are human as you are, make mistakes as you do. Who are you not to forgive but wish to be forgiven? Life is too short not to forgive. Tell someone you forgive them and let it go. "people never get the flowers while they can still smell em"...its Todd with a lil food for thought. "Lord, how many times shall my brother sin against me and i forgive him? Up to seven times?...No, not seven times, but seventy times seven times"- Matthew chp 8 verses 21-22

You are speaking the truth.
ReplyDeleteForgiveness is actually a gift to yourself. The person that you won't forgive has moved on with their business.
Once you have forgiven a person you can move forward and release that burden.
